It’s official.

Some times, it really is accidental

Tam notes an unintentional discharge of a gun by a police officer caused by keys or radio antennae getting in the holster. I do not recall where I read it but someone once advocated cutting strings off of jackets for this very reason. Probably a good idea.

More peak social issues

Well, he says no. I’m not so certain about the religious revival but society needs to unfuck itself.

Pop the popcorn for all the gunternet speculation

Looks like ATF will be issuing two determinations. One involving angled forward grips and the other on modular suppressors.

More Sig P320 drop firing stuff

I mentioned it before I took an expanded break from the interweb. And I said I was skeptical. Tactical Life has come out and said that it is not true:

Tactical-Life.com has confirmed that the Dallas Police Departments suspension of use of the Sig Sauer P320 was based on a miscommunication of a non-existent defect.

A blog by the name of GunMagWarehouse.com erroneously reported that there had been a Dallas PD training incident involving Sig Sauer P320. Specifically, the blog stated that the pistol discharged as a result of being dropped during training, which was far from the truth.

The Dallas Police Department has not tested the P320 and has had no issue with the P320, Sig spokesman Jordan Hunter told Tactical-Life.

But Omaha outdoors did their own testing and found it would fire when dropped a certain way:

So, this begs the question, do you catch a dropped 320? Of course not. But get the hell out of its way.

Other things you shouldn’t do with guns

Stick them in your lover’s vagina.

Never try to catch a dropped gun

Some smart cracker said that. This federal agent should have:

A federal agent was injured at Orlando International Airport on Tuesday when he accidentally shot himself in the foot while trying to catch his weapon.

The agent was approaching a checkpoint at 11:20 a.m. when he went to unsling a shoulder bag and it caught on his holstered weapon, the Orlando Police Department said in a statement.

While the weapon was falling, the agent tried to catch the firearm and inadvertently pulled the trigger.

The Army Wants a Bigger Bullet

military.com:

U.S. Army weapon officials just opened a competition for a new 7.62mm Interim Service Combat Rifle to arm infantry units with a weapon potent enough to penetrate enemy body armor.

“The Army has identified a potential gap in the capability of ground forces and infantry to penetrate body armor using existing ammunition. To address this operational need, the Army is looking for an Interim Combat Service Rifle (ICSR) that is capable of defeating emerging threats,” according to an Aug. 4 solicitation posted on FedBizOpps.gov.

Silencer Shop is reporting getting Form 3s back from ATF in 24 hours. There is no reason any NFA transfer should take more than a day.

Getting Siggy Wit It

Dallas has stopped issuing Sig P320s after one supposedly fired when dropped. I’m skeptical.
